An exciting, new streetscape design has been developed for Rouse Street West, and Council is now reviewing feedback from the consultation phase.

Council intends to increase the number of trees to provide additional shade and shelter from the persistent winds coming from the bay as well as create better pedestrian connections and improved safety for all road users. The design includes a tree-lined central median and a small reduction of nine parking spaces to allow for improved amenity, character and sustainability.

An information session was held on Thursday 16 September, 6:00pm – 7:30pm, at the Port Melbourne Town Hall.

The online survey closed on 8 October 2010.
